Chapter 422 Assassination of Mu Wutian
"Your Majesty the Emperor? Are you talking about..." Huangfu Xue was shocked suddenly, and an incredible look suddenly appeared on her face.
Liu Muqing nodded, admitting it. He continued, "It was the king of the Great Xia Kingdom, Mu Wutian. What I didn't expect was that he was still alive, and he also controlled Ao Rui's daughter, son-in-law and his little granddaughter. No wonder Ao Rui did this. It turned out that all this was done by him!"
Huangfu Xue was also surprised. She had heard a lot about the destruction of the Great Xia Kingdom back then. Although she had not seen all this happen with her own eyes, she could see it from some clues.
The country of Daxia was strong back then, but it was bullied by several other forces. They took advantage of the opportunity of the Four Domain Competition and gathered many powerful Nascent Souls, and then persuaded a strong man in Daxia as an insider, and destroyed the strong man of Daxia in one fell swoop. As for the king Mu Wutian, he fled because of his serious injury, which has always been a mystery.
In the years that followed, there was no news about this king. Someone once said that the stunning and charming emperor had been killed, and the news was becoming more and more convinced, which naturally made many people feel that it was like this.
Now it seems that the emperor was not killed at all, and he has been hiding dormant. He then took the opportunity to control the Dragon King family in one fell swoop, so as to threaten the other party and then achieve the goal of controlling the entire demon clan.
"Do you know Mu Wutian's position now? He was just a strong man in the late stage of the Nascent Soul. Now, just a few decades have passed. No matter how strong his strength is, he is not much stronger. He must be no match for you!" Huangfu Xue said.
Liu Muqing shook his head, with a smile on his face and said, "You would be wrong if you think so. His Majesty the emperor has the opportunity not worse than me. He has actually obtained the inheritance of an ancient demon. His imperial domineering aura turned into a demonic energy. His current cultivation level is probably no less than mine. Otherwise, Ao Rui would not be so cautious. Even the palace he lives in is so tightly arranged by him. It seems that it is to protect Mu Wutian!"
Huangfu Xue nodded, looked at the man and woman who had completely died, and then said, "What should I do now? Do I need to notify Huo Yunzi and the others?"
After thinking for a while, Liu Muqing replied: "You inform them to meet here first. After I come back from Dragon King Ao Rui, we will make a decision. It seems that we are going to have a big fight in this Crystal Palace!"
As soon as his body shook, Liu Muqing's body disappeared quickly like ripples, and his breath did not appear in the outside world at all. At the same time, Huangfu Xue also notified Huo Yunzi and Yizhen of the news.
In the black palace, a figure quietly sat cross-legged in the center. Above the figure of this figure, a black dragon phantom was constantly disappearing and flashing. A black bead was constantly being swallowed by the dragon, and each time it was swallowed and spit, it would bring endless energy to rise.
"You are here!"
Suddenly, the figure who was originally sitting cross-legged suddenly spoke out, and his eyes couldn't help but look at the door. Although there was no figure in the gate there, and even the formation arranged there was no stranger, he still knew that a person had entered the hall.
"Crazy~"
As soon as the water came, the sound of water suddenly sounded from the side of the figure, and then a beautiful young man appeared beside him. This person was either someone else or Liu Muqing who had just left the princess' palace.
He saw Ao Rui in front of him, and a smile appeared on his face, saying, "Everyone in the world said that the Dragon King of the East China Sea is just a Nascent Soul Cultivator. Now it seems that this rumor is a bit unworthy of its name. How can you say that you are a Nascent Soul Cultivator? You should be a person who can enter the God Transformation Stage at any time, and I can feel that your heavenly tribulation has been passed!"
If such words were passed to the outside world, I wonder how many people would shock them. They never thought that the Dragon King of the East China Sea had already passed the God Transformation Tribulation and became a strong man who could enter the God Transformation Stage at any time, but why didn't he enter?
Liu Muqing laughed and continued, "It seems that you are always trying to pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger. This monk has already surpassed everyone, but he still has to pretend to be like this. What are you doing? Are those who want to be unfavorable to you? For example, Mu Wutian?"
Liu Muqing raised his eyebrows and couldn't help but look at Ao Rui. His eyes were bright and full of confidence and insight into his thoughts, as if he had already grasped the key thing and was just waiting for the other party to admit it.
Ao Rui laughed, then he waved his hand and a purple cushion appeared opposite him, and then said, "Why be so anxious? Why sit down and say slowly, I can tell you everything you want to know, and the people of the demon clan can also participate in the next two world wars, but I only ask you one thing, I hope you can agree!"
Liu Muqing lifted his robe and sat down quite comfortably. He looked even more handsome with a hint of laziness on his body. He raised his left hand and then said, "But for Su Ying's business?"
A trace of doting appeared on Ao Rui's old face, then nodded and replied: "Yes, it's my little granddaughter, you can't help but not save it. Even the little dragon girl has nothing to do with the demon wolf. But only Susu, you must rescue her. I believe that you can succeed with your means!"
Liu Muqing's expression changed slightly. He didn't expect that this old dragon was so cruel. In his heart, the granddaughter's status was even heavier than his daughter. It seemed that the old saying of the next generation was really good.
"I can promise you this. After all, I have a certain fate with Su Ying. If I really want to count her as a junior sister in my master, even if you don't say it, I will rescue him. But I don't understand. With your strength, you shouldn't be afraid of Mu Wutian. In addition, these strong men under your command are not easy to deal with Mu Wutian, so why should I be controlled by him?" Liu Muqing asked.
Ao Rui smiled bitterly and said, "The reason for this is not clear for a while. As long as you know this, I cannot take action. You can only succeed by leveraging your hands. And I also want to remind you that Mu Wutian is not a simple person. He has extremely strong abilities. Dozens of our Nascent Soul Powers could not kill him back then, so if he escapes this time, he will definitely become a big trouble!"
Liu Muqing nodded slightly and agreed. Then the two began to discuss the details in the hall. After an hour or two, he returned to the hall again. Seeing that all three of them had returned, he couldn't help but speak.
"I have found out where Mu Wutian is. Now I just need to kill him and then rescue Su Ying, who was kidnapped by him, so the demon clan can join the war. So Mu Wutian must die. No matter what, even if he has no fault, he must die. All we have to do is kill with one blow!" Liu Muqing said quietly, and a faint murderous intent began to appear on his body.
The four of them turned into phantoms and disappeared, and then turned into a bold light and disappeared. Countless lights surrounded them, but the people around them could not see them at all, as if nothing existed in that space.
Mu Wutian was not in the Crystal Palace. Perhaps because he was afraid that the Dragon King would have some means, he didn't believe in this place at all, but because he was afraid that Ao Rui would lose control, he set up the cave in a trench on the side of the Crystal Palace. There were rich water and grass, and countless fish, shrimps and crabs wandering here, which provided them with a layer of concealment.
In addition, there are many obscure formations in this sea area, most of which are mainly warnings. However, these formations are just as false as Liu Muqing and others, and soon they entered the cave hidden in the dark.
The deep cave was not very large from the outside, but after entering it, he found that it was a different world. Mu Wutian himself was the emperor. He was used to living a life of extravagance and desire, so he would not be wronged, so his cave was also extremely luxurious.
Hundreds of huge night pearls above their heads shone around, and countless lights emanated from the night pearls, revealing a hint of warmth, making people feel warm.
In addition, there are many buildings with carved beams and painted buildings, and even corridor pavilions and lofts exist. I don’t know how the other party built it. There is such a place with other caves in such an underground cave.
After entering it, Liu Muqing and others' spiritual consciousness became restrained. Now Mu Wutian's magic power is extremely powerful. Even Liu Muqing himself dared not underestimate him, so he must be careful when entering this place to save people.
Teams of human maids walked past the corridor, and they passed by Liu Muqing and the others, with their steps light and laughter. They did not notice that there were people standing on both sides of them at the moment, and at the same time they were also clear about what they were talking about.
The four of them had a crossed eyes and soon reached a consensus. Then they saw that Liu Muqing's body disappeared immediately, and the other three also flashed in other directions, with their goals very clear and extremely fast.
The pair of maids just now exposed the positions of Su Ying and others while talking. At the same time, they also gossiped about their master, Mu Wutian. At this moment, Mu Wutian was refining elixirs in the palace, and it would probably take several days to get out of seclusion.
The place where Liu Muqing went was the location of Mu Wutian's alchemy room. Although Mu Wutian was refining alchemy at the moment, he was distracted by him, the purpose of his trip was not just to take Su Ying and others away. He also needed to kill this "dead" king. Only in this way can he eliminate the roots and leave no future troubles.
As for Huangfu Xue and the others, they began to act separately. Huo Yunzi, the strongest among them, went to save Suying, while Huangfu Xue went to save Xiaolongnu. As for Yizhen, they went to see if the wolf king is still alive now. If he is alive, they would save him together.
After passing several palaces, Liu Muqing finally saw the towering elixir pharmacy. The rich earth fire and the scent of medicine that hit the nose all pointed out the place where he was here, and he didn't need to look for anything specifically.
His waist twisted, and his body suddenly shrank rapidly, and then turned into a white light spot the size of a grain of rice and slowly floated into the alchemy room.
The formation outside the alchemy room had been activated, but this had no effect on Liu Muqing at all. Soon he entered the alchemy room. His nose twitched slightly, and then he couldn't help but frown.
There is indeed a strong aroma of medicine in this hall, but in addition to this, there are other flavors. This taste of Willow Green is also very familiar, that is, the smell of blood. The strong smell of blood and medicine are mixed together, giving people an extremely strange feeling.
"Did he say he is using the living person to refine elixir?" Liu Muqing couldn't help but think in his heart. This smell made him think of the scene he saw in the water palace. Zhu Qing had encouraged Meijiang Shuijun to refine elixirs, but later he was harmed by him and became a pot of elixir.
With doubts, Liu Muqing slowly floated towards the depths of the alchemy room. The color of the light spot was almost as color as me. This was a breath restraining technique. Unless it was someone who had a cultivation level above him, it would be impossible for anyone to discover his existence. In addition, he had an invisible talisman on his body, so he was not afraid that the other party would discover himself under the double insurance.
"ah……"
“So hot…”
"It hurts so much..."
“…”
In the magnificent but extremely magical hall, strange screams kept ringing. After Liu Muqing entered, it was not clear that the source of the sound was around the alchemy furnace.
Around the alchemy furnace, five pairs of men and women were constantly mingling, but their eyes had completely lost their color, just like machines, mechanically doing such movements. As for the screams, they came from the women under them, at least their lust had not been completely cut off.
But these were not the things that surprised him the most. What made him feel most incredible was the situation in the alchemy furnace.
I saw dozens of blurred figures in the huge alchemy furnace lying in it at this moment. The flames of their bodies had been refined into black and gray, and blood was constantly flowing out along the wound. The so-called bloody aura also comes from this.
"It really was using living people to refine pills. It seems that he has really escaped into the path of demons, without any humanity!" Liu Muqing thought secretly.
This so-called demon path has nothing to do with the demon race. This is a path that practitioners enter. These people have one thing in common, that is, they are extremely inhumane. They suddenly kill millions of mortals for alchemy, or they will find monks to kill them in order to refine a magic weapon.
This is extremely dangerous, so once a monk who escapes into the demonic path appears, he will usually take him and attack him, kill him directly and prevent him from continuing to survive.
But unexpectedly, the dignified king of a country, the former late-stage Nascent Soul powerhouse, actually directly escaped into the demon path for himself.
Looking at Mu Wutian with a flushed face, Liu Muqing's murderous intent became stronger and stronger, and his strong magic power was mobilized. He only needed his order to attack the other party.
"Chee~"
A red light suddenly flew out of the alchemy furnace. Mu Wutianxia opened his mouth with a will, as if a hungry person wanted to swallow it in a hurry. However, Liu Muqing felt his eyes lit up and knew that this was an opportunity.
Along with the golden magic seal, the terrifying magic power fluctuations did not appear at all. Countless fog was shaken away, and even the men and women who were blocking Mu Wutian turned into powder in an instant, as if they had never existed.
"who?"
Mu Wutian suddenly opened his eyes and stared at the right place in front of him in surprise. He could feel a figure approaching him, and there was also an extreme fear that made people tremble all over his body.
"Who is this? Could it be that Ao Rui couldn't help but attack me? It's impossible that everything about him is in my control. If he wants to come to my cave, how could I not know where he is? If it weren't him, who would be? Who would have such strength and could appear here silently, and have such strength, which would be a threat to me!"
At this moment, many thoughts emerged in Mu Wutian's mind. He was searching for all his memories, especially those who were almost as powerful as him. Suddenly, a person popped up in his mind, a handsome young man in white clothes, who was as elegant as snow.
At the same time, in front of him, a white figure suddenly appeared in front of him, and the golden handprint was already printed on his chest. The terrifying golden Buddha power poured into his body like a terrifying golden Buddha power, suppressing the evil evil, sealing all the key spiritual veins on his body, making it unable to move at all, and even the magic power in the dantian could not be extracted.
"puff!"
A large mouthful of blood couldn't help but spurt out from Mu Wutian's mouth. He fell to the ground like a rag pocket, with a strong unwilling look in his eyes. He stared at Liu Muqing as if he wanted to remember his appearance, hoping to get revenge.
"I don't want to see such a hatred look again, so my Emperor, you'd better die!" Liu Muqing's face had no expression. He saw a cold light lit up on his snow-white palm, and cut it towards the other party's neck. The terrifying damage could instantly break the fragile neck, or even cut it off.
"Buzz!"
At this moment, a huge black shield suddenly blocked Mu Wutian, colliding with the white hand blade, and a sound of gold and iron fighting sounded.
Chapter completed!
